Guillaume Saint-James

Symphonie Bleu or "Workers' Symphony", whose name is inspired by blue overalls, invites us to reflect on the special relationship between human beings and machine tools, with rhythm as the common thread. A musical epic in the style of a symphonic poem, at the crossroads of the great film music and classical music, it lets us hear the musicality of the world of metallurgy, sea workers and watchmaking, one of the jewels of which is to be found in Besançon.
